Thanks for this info!  This type of things seems like something worth of updating the mailing list, but alas, communication has always been poor when it comes to vz7.

Hi Jonathan,

  I asked the same question on the dev list and this was the response below.  Btw, if you're having issues, do a yum clean all.

    Hi All,

       I notice that there is some funkiness going on with the repo
    metadata.  A lot of times when I do a 'yum update' I get a message
    saying my local cache is newer than the repo.   If I try to
    install a specific package, I'll get errors like:

    debian-10.0-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-9. FAILED

    
http://mirror.zetup.net/openvz/virtuozzo/releases/7.0/x86_64/os/Packages/d/debian-10.0-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-9.vz7.noarch.rpm:
    [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found   ]  0.0 B/s |    0
    B  --:--:-- ETA

    Trying other mirror.


    The package will never be found on any mirror.


    The only way forward is to do a 'yum clean all', then everything
    is fine... until a few weeks later, when the same thing happens
    again.  Are the repos going through some major changes?


Hi Alexey,

well, i can explain the current situation:
we've uploaded vz7 update 12 bits recently
https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/openvz-7.0.12-283/ <https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/openvz-7.0.12-283/x86_64/os/Packages/d/>

but found a memory leak on vz7.116.6 kernel if running VMs and as OpenVZ users cannot fix kernel issues via ReadyKernel patches,
we decided to roll back update 12 bits in repo until we have it fixed.

This explains the situation with particular debian-10.0-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-9 rpm:
it presents in update 12 repo
https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/openvz-7.0.12-283/x86_64/os/Packages/d/

but absents in update 11 repo
https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/openvz-7.0.11-235/x86_64/os/Packages/d/


But this is quite exceptional case, this does not explain why (if) it happens to you often, the reason should be something else.

Hope that helps.

    Has this been pulled or what?  7.0.12 seems to be flip flopping
    and is
    in repos one day, and gone the next.

    Why is there constant uncertainty surrounding vz7 repos, random
    cases of
    repos dying for a week at a time, etc.  Who is running this show?
